The Ford Family Foundation and Ignite, part of the Ford Family Office, are dedicated to fostering social impact through partnerships with leading UK universities. The Foundation identifies and supports “social entrepreneurs” who have established Community Interest Companies (CICs) or Not-for-Profit organizations (NFPs), often alumni or individuals local to the university. These enterprises receive substantial grants and invaluable mentorship to scale their efforts and drive meaningful change.

This year, they launched Ignite—a competition designed to amplify the impact of promising social enterprises emerging from UK universities. With funding, expert mentoring, and powerful connections, Ignite helps founders grow their ventures and culminates in an opportunity to pitch at the iconic Shard in London.

To support their mission, we developed two cost-effective websites to promote both initiatives, ensuring they had the tools to reach and inspire their audience effectively.
